I fucking love this song. It was originally on a few of Kanye’s pre-Dropout mixtapes/advances, but the shit was so hot Consequence threw it on his Don’t Quit Your Day Job album. It really hits home if you’ve been fucking with this song for years.
See it’s a beautiful life, but the bills will make it ugly
And the beauty of life, is when you’re forced to make it ugly
Had a beautiful night, until a storm done made it ugly
And a beautiful wife, now we divorcing and its ugly
Now my mind state is ugly, my blind dates are ugly
I’m ready to turn it up in the streets and make it ugly
And I started listening to this song again this weekend, so it’s perfect timing. I came across those OG KanYe mixtapes, which I thought were fake until I heard all the exclusive shits on it, and I can’t stop listening to it. Vintage ‘Ye = crack.
BONUS:
Kanye West – Freshman Adjustment
Kanye West – Freshman Adjustment 2
Kanye West – Freshman Adjustment 3
I don’t mean to fuck with anyone’s mixtape money, so…

So strange – both versions of The Good, The Bad, The Ugly came up on my iPod this weekend. Such an excellent song and I’m glad the video worked out in the end.
Also, good to see you posting again, Nation!
